YT9216CJ Difficult Contact Dialing - Android Head-Units

Hi everyone, I just bought a YT9216CJ head unit and I found that creating a shortcut to direct dial a contact (without scrolling through hundreds of contacts or call log entries from the main bluetooth app) is impossible. I'm looking for a way to solve this. From my searches, I found that bluetooth calls are a thing just inside the main app, that's why the system can't place a bluetooth call by itself, so you have to use the main app to place a bluetooth call, which don't give you any way to set a favourite contact or a call shortcut. Any help or even an idea of what to try to get this would be really appreciated, thanks!

Search for Numbers and Kontack Copy

Hi Everybody.
I got a little suggestion for a tool.
When I'm getting Calls, sometimes the names are not shown cause the number is in a different form in my contacts. For example +49941123456 calls but in my contacts it's 0941123456 so the number is not realized. Or if anybody asks me do you know this number I have no possibillity to search for it.
A tool to search the phonebook for nubers would be great.
Also I'm missing a send contact function. When I want to share one or more contacts via bluetooth. (Infrared already works for singel contacts). And ther is no possibillity to copy a a whole contact's information. Its only possible to copy a single line.
A tool to that could copy contacts and send them via sms and bt would be great.
Thank you ver much.
Alex
sending contacts thru BT is possible.
choose 'Beam contact' just as you would thru IR.
then this would appear :
Infrared .... Align ports
Searching
As soon as anonther BT enabled device is in range it will appear there, just 'Tap to Send' hé voila
pocket Informant lets you search on anything, even partial numbers
Thank you very much for your info.

is there a better dialer?

Hi
I have an XDA2i and a leadtek BT GPS working together well, But Have only just got the XDA2i and want to use it for navigation and as a phone!
incoming call seem to work ok TTN5 mutes I talk on my Plantonics BT headset end call unmutes...
Making a call seem difficult while driving as there is no voice dialling running and searching contacts is difficult to see and operate!
How do others do this? Is there a dial that will display the contact list on double clicking the headset that uses a big font?
has anyone tried a headset with call display an directory browsing such as BT800#? if so do they work with the XDA2I
Any advice or help appreciated as at the moment I can't see me getting rid of my other phone!
i use Phoneplus. works great on my i-mate... http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=13354
Thanks, I will give it a go.
I also use phoneplus3 but you can also create POI with phone numbers for all the important numbers like home, work and friends then you can call them directly from within TTN5 via the 'call number' button in main menu 3 of 3.

Thanks, I have already added numbers to TTN5. I found and like pecaller, unfurtunatly it has a number of bugs like not remebering the groups etc.
So I'm using phonepluse but if they get the bugs fixed I would switch to pecaller and its free!
Thanks

Adrian,
You may try VITO Voice2Go for voice dialing or VITO QuickContact for finding contacts and calling with joystick (one-hand operation program, no stylus).

Now the BT headset can show the Caller ID Name!

Found this link from a post in Wizard section yesterday:
http://www.jetwaremobile.com/index.htm
As the doc says this extension has a SIM access profile, I tried this BT extension on my Universal and a Bluetooth Headset SE HBH-662 that has a Caller ID screen. With this BT extension, now the BT headset can show the Caller ID Name IF the contact name and number exists in the SIM card.
However, it will not show any caller name if the contact only exists in Outlook Contacts.
My test also shows, the number stored in the SIM card has to be exactly the same with one sent over by the operator, otherwise it will not show the caller name. Ex. if the operator sends over the caller number as 171xxxxxx and the number stored in the SIM is 71xxxxxxxx then it will not work. Same thing if the number stored in the SIM is +171xxxxxxx and the operator sends the number 1713xxxxxx then it wil not work as well.
I kind of like to use the format +171xxxxxxxx as this is the international format.
Anyway, this is great, as most people have been waiting for this function to work out of their caller ID BT headset. Now, if we can find out how to make it work to access the Outlook Contact, then its perfect...
Can you report back on your experiences with this? I'm reluctant to install it unless it's proved to work and be reliable with my Jabra BT800.

Hi guys !
I'm just trying it in my 9000 with Jabra BT 800
In the site linked by lie_ui I read:
Configuration
The JETware Hands-free Extension allows control of the phonebook and messaging information that is provided to Hands-free devices. To configure these options run the Hands-free Config application which is installed in the Bluetooth Options folder in your start menu.
I don't find any new icon or service and i can't see the caller number
Have you tried this application ?
:wink:
I believe in Jwright's Modified ROM there is an application called "SIM Access" that allows this. I was not able to try it because I don't have a headset with caller name capability. I forgot to copy the "BT SIM Access" application, but already tried it on the latest QTEK ROM a month ago and the application worked fine.
Thanks cktlcmd
Now i search for "Sim Access" in the forum
I keep you update :wink:

If you go to Start Menu\programs you'll find the Bluetooth options folder. By the way, don't forget to soft reset first.
I've tried with Parrot CK3100 and now I have the battery and network signal strenght status as well as network name. I'm expecting someone to try with BT800 and to report it.
i've tried out the software i must say i'm impressed that it actually displaying caller's name. however my main problem now is my i cant activate voice dial now. before the software if i was to push the button the headset voice dialin would kick in. but after installin it, caller id works but the voice dialings malfunction. is anyone else having this problem as well?

Yes, same happens to me.
I have the HBH-662, after installing the software the button on my headset does nothing when pushed, unless it is pushed for answering a call, although the name gets displayed when getting a call, provided that the name is on the SIM card.
The other bad thing about it is, if the name is NOT in the sim, it does not display the number, it displays "Unknown" on the headset!
Good step in the right direction though, now it only needs a few tweaks!
Cheers

Try checking your "Notifiaction Que". There should only be one sddaemon file. If there is a duplicate then delete it. I use MemMaid for this.
please give me a hand to resolve this problem with vocal dialing.

As I mentioned above, the last time I had a problem with voice dialing was when a duplicated "Notification Que": sddaemon file to be exact, was present. Just delete the duplicated sddaemon file, soft reset, and pair your BT headset again. I used MemMaid's Notification Que to clear duplicated files. I hope this is clear enough.
ok i'll test your suggest....thank you.
excuse me for bad english, i don't speak well this language!
i'm italian
nothing..
not vocal dialing
BT extention
I have another problem in addition to the voice dial problem...... whenever I receive a call from soneone who is using a service provider other than my service provider the device hangs and I have to soft rest the device provided that all the contacts are stored in my SIM card.
Great achievement indeed!!! A first step into a long waited direction
However decided to uninstall it from my Universal, waiting for a new release.
In fact some improvements are required to make it really useful.
I've tried it with my Jabra BT800.
A few issues that I've noticed,
Name displayed, only if:
[list:cca8e10c8e]
Contact present into SIM card.
Outlook phonebook not being used (at least with BT800) despite announced as a feature.
In order for the correspondent name to be displayed, number must be stored into Contacts, exactly as sent by the Operator.
- Some operators do not send the '+CountryCode'.
- This may originate different behaviours for instance depending if user is at Roaming or not.
- Some sort of algorithm would be welcomed to add some "intelligence" here.
[*]If received phone number is not present into SIM card, or not exactly with the same format, 'Unknown' is displayed even in the event of a number being sent... :shock:
The number received should be displayed at these circumstances.
[*]Whenever a Contact name gets displayed, only its first 8 characters are shown.
Much better if complete name contained at Contact, would scroll continuously. :idea:
[*]Voice Speed Dial not working, if JETware Mobile Software is installed.
This is a must, to be solved![/list:cca8e10c8e]
Eagerly waiting for a next release
I agree with the summary listed above. As I listed already in the very beginning of this posting what I found. Yes, its also true that Voice Dialing is not longer working once this app is installed. I did not have Voice Dialing enabled indeed, I tweak the registry so that on the push of the button on the BT headset, it will turn on the BT headset to accept any sound from the PDA instead (I use this for VoIP application).
And now this is not longer working, so similar synthom with the Voice Dialing app.
Once last thing, I cannot uninstall this app.
So for those that have not tried it yet but insterested to try, I would recommend not to try it, just read what we have found so far here, and do not need to repeat the same experience.
Hopefully those guys who write this app read this posting as well and will make the fix.
Not to rain on anyone's parade, but my JAM with its lowly Windows 2003 Mobile SE has been showing the contact name if it exists on the SIM without any modifications on my SE HBH-662.
I made this observation about a year ago on HoFo and six or so months ago right here on XDA-Dev.
This is interesting to say the least.

How to handle incoming calls programatically

Hi guys.
When I use my headset I would like to know who is calling. So I thought about it and came to two solutions.
One is to make a program to handle incoming calls and that can be configured to play the voice tag associated with the current calling contact, or if the caller isn't on the address book, then say the phone number (I would make 10 wav files each with one number spoken on it).
The second option was to search for something like it on the net.
For the first I've searched everywhere and I wasn't able to find how to programatically handle incoming calls and retrieve the call info.
For the second I haven't found such software.
Can someone point me in some direction?
Thanks
I searched better and it seems that Microsoft Voice Commander does what I need.
Can someone please confirm?
Thanks

Group contacts

In the Sim manager there is an Edit Group but I cannot find anything that will let me add a group, is there anything that will let me group contacts?
My purpose is to be able to just select the group when I am sending an SMS and it will send the SMS to all the members of that group instead of me selecting all the contacts.
Thanks!
Someone has mentioned about PowerSMS on another forum but it is not free, anyone who has another suggestion?
TIA
Inesoft Phone
Dialer
Dialer makes the usage of the main phone features easy and quick: dial a number, send a message, search a person or add a new contact to your address book. Save your time using Inesoft Dialer on your Windows Mobile phone.
Video Tutorial
One touch
Buttons are big enough and the interface is designed so that you could type with fingers and not to use stylus. Make a call, send a new SMS, add any information about the contact in one touch
T9 Search
If you have a lot of contacts, use the search feature to quickly find a certain person. The information is searched through all the main info fields and through the comments or notes. That's why it is very easy to find a contact when you remember information partly
Visualization
Upload a photo for the each contact in your address book. The photo will be displayed when you receive or make a call. Photos will be also displayed at your Favorite list, after the successful search of the contact is fnished.
Connection notification
Making a call your phone will give a light vibro-signal, notifying you about the successful connection. Thus you do not need to look at the display and check the connection. Double vibro-signal will let you know that the number you are trying to reach is busy.

Don't just purchase the software because I referred this application, take the trial. I haven't fully tried this application in regards to categories...
I use GroupSMS, which is free:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354164
Works great on the Xperia. You determine the people in a group by editing their contact details and selecting their 'categories'.
You can't do this from manilla if you use it, you have to go to the old windows mobile contact view.
